Well, I certainly wouldn't just fire off a resume via email or someone's careers page. I'd call the recruiting boss directly and I'm pretty sure they'd be professional and keep it all quiet. Hey, at least if it got back to my current boss, there'd be no question that I'm getting fired and sooner than later. My concern is that my company is so unpredictable, that my boss might be bluffing about firing me and so I might be safe and just not know it. What if I leave preemptively to go work for a competitor? And how do I tell such a place that I'm about to be fired or laid off and am not leaving on my own?
